RE: (erielack) Another Website Update

Traditionally, the "employe" spelling comes from the British. It appears to have carried over to the US, but as many other words ("colour," "aluminium"), it morphed to slightly different spellings in the US.

A new rule (Hours of Service Law) was added:  When it becomes apparent that a trip cannot be completed within sixteen hours, it is the duty of Conductor and Engineer to notify Superintendent promptly, giving at least two hours advance notice.

Also new rules about Sufferns Crossing in Elmira Heights was added.

There is no longer any connections with D&H Passenger trains in Binghamton.

There are some schedule changes in the Delaware Division.

One other thing of note:  In these two ETTs, the word employe is now spelled employee.  Does anybody know why the spelling of this word changed during the mid 50s?
